I'm in two minds about the NHS and out-sourcing. Some of the areas I have heard about which have been outsourced are more efficient and patients are full of praise at their treatment and the short waiting times. And free at the point of delivery, of course as they are NHS..
A friend has been attending a clinic which is, she tells me, outsourced totally to a German company and excellent according to her. What will happen to that though, post-Brexit?
Perhaps not-for-profit organisations are the way forward?
Welsh Water is a not-for-profit organisation and perhaps all water companies should be run like that too.
We do need to have a re-think on how we fund our healthcare Oopsminty, there are many inefficiencies in procurement and even scandals where loopholes allow unscrupulous providers to 'rip off' the NHS (in effect stealing money from the sick).
